Stromae "Ave Cesaria" (Henry Scholfield, dir.)

Here's a smart way to humanize Stromae, an International star on the verge of breaking America thanks to his stunning man or mannequin video "Papaoutai." Filmed in one-take, on VHS no less, at a party where Stromae updates Hot Jazz with his band and we catch snippets of stories as people evade or make eye-contact with the camera. And, as with all things shot on VHS: It was clearly recorded over something else.

Reimagining Classical Music with Contemporary Music Videos

Can South Korean dance troure Waveya and a booty music video get the kids to listen to classical music?

It's open source, so act fast before someone else grabs Bolero.
